Then my line starts peeling big time and soon enough he cuts through the line. Then the bastage comes up with my fish in its mouth, and my lefthook pilgrim, obviously taunting me.... Had a few calm choice words of course. I think it went something like:
"GO F YOURSELF YOU STUPID FING SEAL, I HOPE YOU CHOKE ON THAT DAMN PLUG!"
Luckily the fishing didnt totally shut off, just all the big fish left  |
How did the seal fight? Strong steady pull that you had not chance in stopping?
I've had two fish grabbed by something in the last few weeks. It was at night so I never got a look at whatever it was. It was just swam off at a moderate pace with the fish and I had no chance of stopping it. Thinking seal but could be a shark I guess.
